PRIORITY

This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119 to an application entitled “Method And Apparatus For Setting Destination in Navigation Terminal” filed in the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Feb. 22, 2006 and assigned Ser. No. 2006-17457, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates generally to a navigation system, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for setting a destination in a navigation terminal.

2. Description of the Related Art

In common, a navigation system is a system for informing a driver of a moving body, such as a vessel, an airplane, or a vehicle, of a current position of the moving body and calculating an optimum route to a desired destination, and guiding the driver along the optimum route.

The navigation system can be constructed with a client-server structure including a navigation server for providing a navigation service or data needed to the navigation service, and a user navigation terminal for using the navigation service provided by the navigation server.

The navigation server provides a current position and a route to a position desired by a user, various kinds of data corresponding to the navigation service, or data needed to the navigation service. The navigation terminal downloads a route or various kinds of navigation service data from the navigation server using an exclusively produced navigation program and provides the route or various kinds of navigation service data to the user, or provides the navigation service without the navigation server.

Since the navigation system can be linked to a mobile communication network, the various kinds of data provided by the navigation server can be transmitted to the navigation terminal via the mobile communication network, and moreover, the navigation terminal can perform mobile communication. The navigation terminal also can access the navigation server via the mobile communication network and request the navigation server for various kinds of services or data.

The navigation system is available on the market, providing user-friendliness. In particular, a function of calculating and providing a route between a current position and a specific position can help a navigation user arrive at a destination. To calculate the route, coordinates of the current position and coordinates of the specific position, i.e., the destination, are required. A navigation terminal using a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver included in the navigation terminal or a user input can set the current position coordinates. However, the destination position coordinates can be set only by a user input. The user input for the destination position coordinates can be achieved by directly inputting an address of the destination, or searching previously stored map data and selecting the destination.

When the destination is set, the destination position coordinates should be correctly input using a correct address or navigation terminal-recognizable data. This means that the user should know the correct address or a geographical position of the destination. Thus, if the user does not know the address of the destination or the correct geographical position of the destination, or if the destination is not a specific region or feature, for example, if the destination is a certain position of a highway or the mid-slope of a certain mountain, it is difficult to set the destination.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An object of the present invention is to substantially solve at least the above problems and/or disadvantages and to provide at least the advantages herein below. Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for conveniently setting a destination in a navigation terminal.

According to the aspect of the present invention there is provided a method and apparatus for correctly setting a destination even when a user does not know a correct address of the desired destination.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method and apparatus for correctly setting a desired destination even when the destination is not a specific region or feature.

According to still another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of setting a desired destination in a navigation terminal, the method including receiving a position information message; and setting position coordinates corresponding to the position information included in the position information message as the position coordinates of a desired destination related to a certain route.

According to yet another aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus for setting a destination in a navigation terminal, the apparatus including a wireless communication unit for receiving a position information message; and a controller for setting position coordinates corresponding to position information included in the position information message as position coordinates of a desired destination related to a certain route.

The message server provides a Short Message Service (SMS) and a Multimedia Message Service (MMS) to terminals connected to the mobile communication network 50, whereby short messages and multimedia messages are transmitted and received between the terminals connected to the mobile communication network 50.

By storing various modes of map data and including a route calculation module (not shown), the navigation server 60 provides guidance information by calculating a current position of a certain terminal and a route to a specific destination, which are requested by the certain terminal, and provides data, such as map data, required for a navigation service in response to a request of the certain terminal. The navigation server 60 also provides various types of the navigation service such as a route guidance service, a traffic information service, and a map information service. The navigation server 60 frequently updates the navigation service according to a rapid service change.

The navigation terminals 10 and 20 for supporting mobile communication can be user terminals, e.g., cellular phones, which have subscribed for the navigation service, and have an exclusive navigation program for receiving the navigation service. A first navigation terminal 10 (hereinafter “first terminal”) of the navigation terminals 10 and 20 directly calculates a current position thereof or a route to a specific destination by including a route calculator according to the present invention.

A second navigation terminal 20 (hereinafter “second terminal”) of the navigation terminals 10 and 20 requests the navigation server 60 through the mobile communication network 50 to calculate a current position thereof or a route to a specific destination according to the present invention. The navigation server 60 calculates the current position or route of the second terminal 20 and provides the calculated current position or route to the second terminal 20. The second terminal 20 displays the calculated current position or route, which has received from the navigation server 60, to a user.

Although the mobile communication terminal 30 does not have the exclusive navigation program, the mobile communication terminal 30 transmits navigation related data received from the navigation server 60 through the mobile communication network 50 to the exclusive navigation terminal 40 by connecting to the exclusive navigation terminal 40. Although the exclusive navigation terminal 40 does not have a mobile communication function according tithe present invention, the exclusive navigation terminal 40 has the exclusive navigation program for providing the navigation service, calculates a current position thereof or a route to a specific destination and provides the calculated result to a user, and stores the navigation related data input from the mobile communication terminal 30 or provides the navigation service using the navigation related data.

In the navigation system having the above-described configuration, each of the terminals 10, 20, 30 and 40 transmits a position information multimedia message in which current position information is included in a multimedia message to a certain terminal through the mobile communication network 50, according to the present invention. If each of the terminals 10, 20, 30 and 40 receives a position information multimedia message from other terminals, each of the terminals 10, 20, 30 and 40 confirms the position information multimedia message, sets a destination by setting destination position coordinates corresponding to position information included in the position information multimedia message, and directly calculates a route or requests the navigation server 60 to calculate the route.
